Hello and Welcome! We are the Dwyer Family. We farm in the beautiful Ottawa Valley, Ontario, Canada. We are a Christian, Roman Catholic family with five children. We own and operate 'Dwyer's Farmhouse'. It's a farm vacation get-a-way place. Our guests stay in a farmhouse and experience a working farm. I hope you enjoy following along with our adventures.....there is never a dull moment here! This is our farm story....

A Profile and More Cakes!

Johanna has been writing exams....she has her last one today! There have been diagrams of brains and eyeballs and muscular systems all over the kitchen table. Hard to believe that she is already done her first year of nursing.

I was honoured to be profiled by the Ag Women's Network. The post is here.

It was so gloomy and cloudy at the beginning of the week but now the sun has returned....the grass is getting really green....the clothes are drying nicely on the line....and it's starting to feel warm. And that's so very good.

Dwyer's Farmhouse

Dwyer's Farmhouse is a very unique farm experience for your family. The century old farmhouse is rented out exclusively to you. Bring the family and stay on a working farm...and have the place to yourself! Don't forget to feed the hens and gather the fresh eggs for your breakfast. Cuddle the barn kittens and treat the work horses to an apple or carrot. Pick some fresh produce from the garden. Relax and watch the cattle graze or spend the day exploring the Ottawa Valley. When evening comes you can roast a marshmallow on the bonfire and gaze at the stars. Then settle in for the night in Dwyer's Farmhouse. It will be just like the sleepovers you used to have at Grandma's farm. Your children will cherish the memories and want to come back to stay again and again.
